Who are we?

HOME MADE TURBO

So, you MUST do you boost controller at home!

http://www.geocities.com/chmwatson/FAQs/mbc.html

Works like a champ, I´ve set my wastegate for 5 psi, and I set the screw for the pressure I want, my wastegate is a ----$&" piece of s$&", it would spike like hell, now I´ve got no further spiking isssues, boost is steady, only spikes by 1 psi.......

Total cost: 4 or 5 dollars at most.....

Works same as a Joe P boost controller
